ok so bought a set of generic rims off cl today they fit a mercury after doing some reserch the bolt patternt was fine so bolted them up fit fine etc made purchase. once i got home and put them all on my rear brake drums are clanging around like pots and pans wtf any thoughts or ideas or better yet quick cheep fixes please help!!! btw i tripple checked the lugnuts and there tight...
 


the wheels are hitting the caliper or anything? have you tried putting you old wheels back on just the back and see if it still does it?
 
put the old ones back on and chuck the new rims....jk. jack it up n spin em and you should be able to tell whats wrong if its the backs. or if its the fronts put the old ones on and try that.....good luck bro
 
I guess i need a wheel spacer of some type it was the brake drum in the rear rattling. the stock rims have a 10th of a inch lip that presses against that the new ones dont... so spacer i guess...
